Usher: from Serendipity to the Cameo | Miami Herald

Before hitting the stage at the AAA Saturday night, Usher and his manager-turned-girlfriend Grace Miguel took his two sons for Frozzzen Hot Chocolates at Serendipity 3 on Lincoln Road. After his show the kids went to bed and Usher, Jermaine Dupri and Rick Ross were seen at multiple VIP tables on the Cameo dance floor. Usher requested a table that would be accessible to his fans, popping multiple bottles of Grey Goose and champagne as female fans swarmed the table; he enjoyed the attention, giving out hugs and high fives to a bevy of beauties. Also nearby was a newly svelte Ross who was seen deep in conversation with Dupri throughout the night. Usher kept the party going at E11even Miami where he was escorted to a VIP table by owner Dennis DeGori. He and a small group of friends partied until the early hours of the morning with a bottle of Belvedere and shots in hand.
